Here's Teresita message in her own inspiring words about her involvment with Stitches from the Heart:
I
have been a member and Area Representative for the Elk Grove-Sacramento Chapter
that I started back in 2008 (June) which was the same year that I started
HEARTS of LOVE. My chapter is local and I get together once a month with
the knitters and crocheters that are members and we do what we love to do…..
make baby creations for SFTH which then distributes them to newborns in
hospitals across the country.
This year we have a new director that has taken over after
the Founder and former director of SFTH decided to retire. We have a goal of
trying to reach one million handmade creations which then will allow us to have
a national spokesperson and thus get the word out to many more crafters.
We have chapters in states across the country but are hoping
to add more states to the SFTH Family. I have been helping and spending time
this summer promoting SFTH and getting the word out about this
wonderful organization which is a non-profit baby charity organization.
Please visit SFTH on Facebook or website for more information about this organization. On Ravelry? Feel free to contact Teresita of the Hearts of Love Group on Ravelry if you are interested in helping knit or crochet items or starting your own group of SFTH knitters and crocheters in your area. Please help spread the word!
I hope you will look for ways to celebrate the wonderful community of charity knitting and crochet. Open your heart and mind to receiving the gift of creative giving. For those of you who already have, you know what I'm talkin' 'bout.
Have a wonder filled week.
Margaret (enjoying the chance to begin again today)
